Temporary sandbox thread

@Marksman

If boo is short for booawesome I agree.

Edit: but I don’t care about avatars that much so if the only people who care want square I am fine with it.

Can you spare a square?

@JohnnyTruant

I like the avatars big.

Also, what is that little chevron ribbon thing icon beside the flag and teach can for? I know I could prolly find out without asking but I got lazy after a minute of work. Working is for saps.

Testing multi-quote. Very cool.

Testing quote from a different thread…

@hokie

ultiple people might be better than just one, if we’re really trying to maximize engagement. I’ll make a thread in About Unstuck to discuss.

Cool–you can start a reply in one thread, navigate to a different thread, quote from that thread, and it will ask whether you want to reply in the original thread you started your reply or the thread you just quoted from.

I’ve deleted several test posts above–can anyone else read them or am I the only one that can see the orange pencil on the top right?
I like that the software noticed I was posting several times in a row and suggested that I multi-quote or @ other posters that I’m responding to in the same post.

Also will test the Flag button here–sorry to whoever gets those notifications :D
Can other users see that I’ve flagged this post for moderation?

I can see your withdrawn posts but nothing tells me you flagged anything, which makes sense.

Here’s how your deleted post appears.

I think the 24 hour thing is so you can restore it if you change your mind. After that you won’t be able to see it nor will anyone else. I think there is a way admin’s can see all deleted posts, but I can’t remember how to do that right now

[hokie]

Thanks! Looks like you can also see the orange pencil in the top right, which I assume allows you to read what I have deleted.

[Slighted]

i dont get anything when i click the orange pencil on your post…

Skimmed the part in between and thought for a moment your modest nest egg was $500mil

Testing multi-quote. Trivially easy!

[Sogge]

Apparently you can INSERT POLLS INTO POSTS?

Who to vote for in 2020?

• Trump
• Literally anyone else
• Jill Stein

[Sogge]

FYI, this is how you can do it.

Amazing

Not sure if BBCode-tables work, or markdown.

State	Hillary	Trump
CA	90	10
TX	48	52
FL	50	50

Ah, there were code-markers in the one i copy-pasted. :D

[zikzak]

Markdown	tables	work
cell 1	cell 2	cell 3

Haven’t written that part up yet in the wiki tho.

[Sogge]

Yeah, I accidentally had code-markers around the table code. Works fine

By far the coolest thing I’ve discovered is that when you copy and paste it copies the formatting, too.

An Internet forum , or message board , is an online discussion site where people can hold conversations in the form of posted messages.[1] They differ from chat rooms in that messages are often longer than one line of text, and are at least temporarily archived. Also, depending on the access level of a user or the forum set-up, a posted message might need to be approved by a moderator before it becomes publicly visible.

Forums have a specific set of jargon associated with them; example: a single conversation is called a “thread”, or topic .

A discussion forum is hierarchical or tree-like in structure: a forum can contain a number of subforums, each of which may have several topics. Within a forum’s topic, each new discussion started is called a thread and can be replied to by as many people as so wish.

Depending on the forum’s settings, users can be anonymous or have to register with the forum and then subsequently log in to post messages. On most forums, users do not have to log in to read existing messages.

I just copied that directly from Internet forum - Wikipedia and put quotes around it.
